I missed the kernel-image to linux-image thing!
I guess I missed something in the weekly update of my testing
system. I needed to recompile my 2.4.27 kernel (because USB mass
storage suddenly broke, on which I'll post seperately if I can't figure
it out). So, I go to 'dpkg -i linux-image-2.4.27_...' and it
bails because installation will overwrite a file (it turns out LOTS of
files) provided by 'kernel-image-2.4.27'. I used the
--force-overwrite option to dpkg to install anyway, and it seems no
harm was done. I'm sure there was some good reason for the
change, but the transition could have been made a little more
transparent!
